How often is google.com checked?

DownDetector.me checks google.com automatically every 5 minutes using a direct HTTPS probe. Results are stored and displayed in real time on this page.

Why can't I access google.com even though it shows as operational?

Our probe checks from a single external server. If the site shows as operational but you cannot connect, the issue is likely local — try clearing your DNS cache, disabling a VPN, or switching networks. On Windows run ipconfig /flushdns, on macOS run sudo dscacheutil -flushcache.

How do I get alerted when google.com goes down?

Use the Discord webhook form on this page. Paste your Discord server's webhook URL and click Connect. You will receive an automatic alert within 5 minutes of a status change. No account is required.

Yes. A live SVG badge is available at https://downdetector.me/badge/google.com.svg — use the embed code on this page to add it to your README or dashboard.

Is DownDetector.me affiliated with google.com?

Frequently asked questions about google.com

According to our latest automated probe, google.com is currently down. The server did not return a successful HTTP response. This could be a temporary outage, a server error, DNS failure, or an expired SSL certificate. Check the history graph above to see whether this is a new issue or a recurring pattern.

Our probe checks the domain from a single external server. If it shows as operational but you cannot connect, the issue is likely local to your network, ISP, browser, or DNS cache. Try these steps: (1) Hard-refresh your browser with Ctrl+Shift+R or Cmd+Shift+R. (2) Clear your browser cache and cookies. (3) Disable any VPN or proxy you are using. (4) Flush your DNS cache — on Windows run ipconfig /flushdns, on macOS run sudo dscacheutil -flushcache. (5) Try a different network such as mobile data. (6) Try switching your DNS to 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare) or 8.8.8.8 (Google).

DownDetector.me runs an automated monitor every 5 minutes. Each check sends a direct HTTPS HEAD request from our server to google.com, records the HTTP status code, the total response time in milliseconds, and whether the connection completed. Results are stored in a database and displayed on this page in real time.

No HTTP response was recorded — the connection timed out or failed before the server could respond. This typically means the server is offline, DNS is not resolving, or a firewall is blocking access.

Use the Discord webhook form above. Paste your server's webhook URL into the field and click Connect. You will receive an automatic notification in your Discord channel within 5 minutes of our monitor detecting a status change for google.com. No account or sign-up is required.
